Vendor Spotlight: Youngblood Crafted

Selena Youngblood | Owner of Youngblood Crafted

Founded in 2018, Youngblood Crafted grew from a deeply personal journey rooted in health, healing, and intentional living. After being diagnosed with melanoma in 2016, Selena became even more mindful about what she was putting on her skin. Her desire to avoid toxins, harsh chemicals, and unnecessary additives inspired her to begin creating natural skincare products made with simple, carefully selected ingredients.

That passion eventually led her to create Youngblood Crafted, a handcrafted skincare business centered around gentle, intentional products designed to support healthy skin. Every item Selena makes reflects her commitment to clean ingredients and thoughtful formulation.

From researching ingredients and developing formulas to production and packaging, Selena personally manages every step of the process. Working in small batches allows her to focus on freshness, quality, and the small details that make each product special.

One of Selena’s favorite parts of running Youngblood Crafted is connecting with customers at the farmers market. She enjoys listening to people’s skincare concerns, helping them find products that fit their individual needs, and seeing their excitement when they experience a new scent or try a product for the first time. Those conversations often inspire new ideas and seasonal creations.

Selena also enjoys introducing new scents and products throughout the year to keep her collections fresh and aligned with changing skincare needs. Whether customers are looking for lightweight products during warmer months or richer skincare during cooler seasons, she loves creating products that feel thoughtful, practical, and personal.

Compassion and sustainability play an important role in Youngblood Crafted as well. As Selena shares, “I believe skincare should be both effective and compassionate, which is why I prioritize cruelty-free ingredients and practices in the products I create.” Along with using carefully chosen ingredients, she remains mindful of the environmental impact of her business and strives to create products that are thoughtful for both people and the planet.

When asked about her favorite product, Selena says it is impossible to choose just one. Every product she creates is something she personally uses and loves, and each new scent often becomes her latest favorite.
